Time information and realistic animations

Dear developers,
As I saw the examples, event data of them don't have actual time information. So two questions:

1. Is it correct that currently phoenix doesn't works anyhow with the right times and the animation is just a visual effect.
2. Are there plans to work with timing information and provide realistic animations?

The background of the question, at HallD in Jefferson Lab was this event viewer:

https://halldweb.jlab.org/talks/2018/HDvis-Video/js/event.html#

It is not fancy but has real time information from the experiment. And our experience of using it was that it gave very valuable debugging information for people working on the real data reconstruction. At least it almost instantly revealed several bugs and lead to several enhancements. So it was proven to be valuable.

Now I'm one of developers working on EIC Athena collaboration software. And we desperately want to start working on something to better represent our simulation/reconstruction data and for sure phoenix effort is something that we seriously consider to join.

Review the Phoenix examples and their event data, then compare them with the linked HallD event viewer at event.html. Determine whether timing information is currently represented and what realistic animation support would require. Done would mean a scoped implementation plan or a concrete decision about the requested capability.
